Building a garage
September 15, 2006

The first dig for my garage!


There are plenty of rocks in the ground...some quite large.

removing the top layer is easier with a tractor

Björn determines the total wood needed...

...and we go to get it!



Tiii-mber!

bringing it home



Next up: cut the logs into planks

Dad once built this saw mill

the kittie is sticking around


more digging to be done...

gravel, drain pipes

measuring

buying lots of concrete blocks

making a foundation

night-time work


Lastly, raising a wall.

And this is where I left the remaining work to Björn and my dad...and off to Sydney I go.

A few weeks later, this is where they are...
